AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention allows for a thinner IDT electrode and the suppression of a spurious Rayleigh wave signal. This improves the frequency characteristic and makes the device smaller.

Problems solved by technology

Such an increased thickness of the IDT electrode would lead to processing limitations in lithography and other processes and cause difficulties in manufacturing.
Such a smaller cut angle would cause a spurious signal due to a Rayleigh wave.

Abstract

An acoustic wave element comprising a lithium tantalate substrate having the Euler angles (φ, θ, ψ), a first component φ satisfying 10°≦φ≦50°; and an electrode disposed on the lithium tantalate substrate and configured to excite a main acoustic wave of wavelength λ, the electrode having a density ρM satisfying ρM≧ρTi where ρTi represents a density of titanium (Ti), and a thickness hM of the electrode satisfies 0.141×exp(0.075ρM)λ≦hM≦0.134λ Embodiments of the present disclosure minimize a thickness of the electrode and suppress a spurious Rayleigh wave signal.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 62 / 132,046, titled “ACOUSTIC WAVE ELEMENTS, ANTENNA DUPLEXERS AND ELECTRONIC DEVICES,” filed on Mar. 12, 2015, which is hereby incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]Aspects and embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to an acoustic wave element, an antenna duplexer or a diplexer including the acoustic wave element, and an electronic device including the acoustic wave element, the antenna duplexer, or the diplexer.BACKGROUND[0003]Conventionally, an acoustic wave element in which non-leaky shear horizontal (SH) waves propagate along a lithium tantalate (LiTaO3) substrate has been used as a filter and an antenna duplexer for a mobile communication device and the like. In such an acoustic wave element, the SH waves are excited by configuring the velocities of the SH waves to be less than those...
